Release notes, behind-the-scenes engineering and practical workflows for editing video

ArtDaddy is open source
The complete desktop editor, timeline, renderer, MCP server and built-in agent are now
available under GPL-3.0. It is the same codebase used to build the installers, so the
local-first privacy model is something anyone can inspect rather than a promise hidden
behind a binary.
